For OBSD 3.9 there is a patch for X, 002_xorg.patch

The patch says it should be applied to the X source
located at:

cd /usr/src/XF4

But everything I've ever read says the X source,
XF4.tar.gz should be unpacked and stored in:

/usr/

Example of this: http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html#starting

Which is it? And can't we get on the same page here?

Neither are wrong. The XF4 source can be put and built anywhere
you want. Personally, I put the source in /usr/build/xf4.src when
I'm building releases.

"man release" provides more information about building XF4 from source.
